Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Bring Your Own Birthday Candle

AH, yesterday was my birthday.

My second birthday cake for the day. (yes. SECOND.)

Although it is a tad bit funny that I had to celebrate my birthday
at a wedding of family twice removed (wait, its more like I don’t really know
them becaue this is my husband;s side. I just never met them, that’s all.)

My mother and father in law had flown in for the wedding but
of course since we live here and my sister in law lives here, its double the
fun. However my husband is in this perpetual odd schedule so my husband wasn’t in
the wedding. I had fun nonetheless.

As it is as an odd suggestion by my friend, I brought a
small birthday candle and when they brought out the molten chocolate cake, I stuck
the candle in and blew it. You know, all *this* (the wedding) for my birthday.

Also it was great that while my husband wasn’t there, I still
had a load of fun dancing with my entire family. Ah yes. We are the loud crazy
lot.

As Gabi, my Sister-in-law’s girlfriend (other
sister-in-law?) about bringing my own birthday candle to the wedding said, “Stella, you are crazy. And I love it.”

See? i had a *grand* birthday!

This was my 5 minute Stream of Consciousness Sunday post. It’s
five minutes of your time and a brain dump. Want to try it? Here are the
rules…

Set a timer and write for 5 minutes only.

Write an intro to the post if you want but don’t edit the post. No proofreading or spellchecking. This is writing in the raw.

Publish it somewhere. Anywhere. The back door to your blog if you want. But make it accessible.

Love it! I was in my friend's wedding on my birthday one year- they had the DJ play a special song for me, it was really sweet! Plus, the way I see it, I got a fancy dinner, dancing all night, and got to drink for free on my birthday! What more can you ask for?
